- Short Description:
- Wilson presents a strategic, persuasive model for treating OCD, integrating principles from MRI brief therapy and Ericksonian hypnosis. His approach helps clients dismantle dysfunctional beliefs by introducing a paradoxical frame of reference, treating obsessions as irrelevant noise, and creating structured rules to bypass overthinking. Techniques include modifying rituals, using timers, postponing obsessions, and adding consequences to reinforce practice. With a focus on mindfulness, collaboration, and generating uncertainty, this method shifts clients from avoidance to empowered action.

- The ability that Dr. Milton Erickson had for “reading the patient” and get information from them in order to build a context in which change was easy to obtain is an area that has been often overlooked due to the difficulty to understand the process that he was using. In what way was he carefully observing the patient to gain personal information from them? Several techniques will be listed and demonstrated in order to become an observant and strategic therapist.

- The American novelist William Faulkner stated, "The Past is never dead. In fact, it is not even past."

It also operationalizes the Ericksonian principle: "The solution often appears unrelated to the problem."

- Short Description:
- In the literature, music and drama, artists often covertly foreshadow impending events. In social psychology there are myriad studies of priming, an effect by which the accessibility of a future target is increased by the presentation of an earlier cue. Priming effects illuminate important facets of interpersonal responsiveness. Milton Erickson was the first therapist to seed future ideas in the course of strategic therapy and hypnosis. Seeding is an important concept that can increase the effectiveness of interventions regardless of the technique that will be used. We will learn to harness seeding methods through lecture, demonstration and practice.
